I also found some very nice original black interior parts over the past few years and finally got around to installing them along with a nice shallow walnut wheel. I also installed a nice original 1969 shifter assembly but put a Day 2 Hurst knob in black on it. I didn't replace the faded carpet to keep with the patina look. Here's the before and after.

We ended up taking the car to Cruisin Ocean City MD this past week and had a blast. The car received some great reception. Everyone loved it even with it's ratty paint.

I love the new look of your Camaro, perfect Day 2.
Are those 15x8 or 15x10's? |

Wow, that looks plain bad. Reminds me of high school days.

Car looks just right! By the way, I went back through the thread and saw the topper of your wedding cake. Priceless.
I showed that to my wife, and she laughed! Well done! |
Re: My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28
Man I just love that car so much.

Re: My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28
Looks great! How big is the gap between snubber and the front of the leaf spring though, looks to be hanging down?

Re: My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28
They do look a little low. Do you have wedges in there? I have several sets of Lakewoods that are original with "patina".......the new look.

Re: My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28
Awesome project with a Nice original interior in that one!!!
|
Re: My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28
Thanks for the compliments guys. Yes, the traction bars are sitting a little low. I didn't have any wedges when I installed them. I'll remedy that as soon as I get some free time.

Very nice!

Re: My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28
Matt, looks great. What tires and sizes do you have on the front and rear? 15x8 rears, what are the fronts? Looks killer.

Re: My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28
The perfect stance and wheel and tire combination for a '69 Camaro. Takes me back to my high school days. It's a shame so many of these cars have gone the "pro touring" route.

wow great picture! looks awesome!

Finally found the correct Rosewood steering wheel needed for an 05A car. I had an early shallow walnut on it before this. Thanks to member Jeff Miller for the cleanup and mild restoration on the wheel as it had some smoke damage. Wheel has some wear on it but it's perfect for this car.
